Carl, That did the trick. It does, however, leave me with a previous problem. When I edit the object via a form (in my app) it displays the field value like this "2008-09-30". And due to field validation the form widget only accepts this format: "30-09-2008".
Any clue on how a datefield contents then would be correctly presented in a form when the format deviates from how it's stored in a mySQL database? Thanx! Gerard.
